Light microscopy is of great importance for basic research, analysis in materials science and for the practical control of fabrication steps. Wlien used conventionally it serves to reveal structures of objects which are otherwise mvisible to the eye or magnifying glass, such as micrometre-sized structures of microelectronic devices on silicon wafers. The lateral resolution of the teclmique is detennined by the wavelength of tire light...

Materials science has in its time suffered a great deal of the second type of criticism. Thus Calvert (1997) asserts that metallurgy remains a proper discipline, with fundamental theories, methods and boundaries. Things fell apart when the subject extended to become materials science, with the growing use of polymers, ceramics, glasses and composites in engineering. The problem is that all materials are different and we no longer have a discipline. ...

The invention and development of the zinc polycarboxylate and glass-ionomer cements was brought about by a change in basic attitudes in materials science in dentistry. This largely revolved around the necessity of inventing materials which would adhere to tooth enamel and dentine.

During past decades, a relatively new method attracted much of attention of experimentalists, namely, the sol-gel method widely implemented in numerous scientific and industrial applications. Actually, it caused a breakthrough in material science it is worth mentioning that sol-gel routes are cmcial for synthesis of nanomaterials, and one of methods of the 21st century namely, commercial nanoporous glasses are readily available on the market just thanks to sol-gel technologies.

Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) is a widespread analytical technique for the study of surfaces in materials science. Mostly used for elemental analyses and depth profiling, it is particularly relevant for many different fields of research including cultural heritage studies. Reviews of its use for the study of ancient glasses or metal artefacts already exist in the literature [Spoto 2000, Darque-Ceretti and Aucouturier 2004, Dowsett and Adriaens 2004, Adriens and Dowsett 2006, Anderle et al. 2006, McPhail 2006], but as only elemental information is obtained, these studies are limited to inorganic materials.

Some important everyday items that are made from polymers with widely different properties Include billiard balls, plastic dishes, soda bottles, barrier and decorative films, egg cartons, polymeric drinking glasses, foam seats, and automotive tires. These applications for synthetic polymers have developed over about 150 years. As shown in Table 2.1, modern polymer material science and technology can be traced back to as early as 1770 [1]. Some Important advances In the understanding of polymer production were developed before World War II.
